Refreshing Korean Naengmyeon Cold Noodles
💡 Pro-Tips for Eating Like a Local:
- The Scissor Cut ✂️: Because traditional buckwheat noodles are exceptionally long, springy, and chewy, it is highly common in Korea to use clean kitchen shears to cut the noodles once or twice right in the bowl before diving in!
- Adjust to Taste: Serve your Naengmyeon with hot mustard paste and extra rice vinegar on the side. Taste the slushy broth first, then add a drop of each to give the soup a sharp, sinus-clearing kick that pairs beautifully with the cold broth.
